A review by cheesie
Highest Bidder by Sara Cate
emotional
fast-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? Character
- Loveable characters? Yes
this was such an anticipated read for me and it met my expectations and then some. i love this series and am happy they continue to impress me! i would recommend it to anyone who’s read katee robert’s neon gods and is looking for more in the realm of sex clubs and taboo relationships while still being more light than dark.
pros:
- it has elements of a “romancing my stepdad” trope without being gross. despite the age gap, ronan and daisy did NOT know eachother until daisy was an adult
- ronan kade has the potential to be… an annoying cliche “grumpy” character to daisy’s sunshine but this book veered away from those stereotypes and i was sooo thankful.
- a short read! good if you read romance fast like i do and want to get thru a story quick
cons:
- pretty predictable conflict, and daisy’s inner monologue while thinking about it got tired fast. WE KNOW, you have to tell him about your mom! we know it’s coming!
- not a fan of the ending trope but i blacked it out already. i pretended it do not exist
